My movie pick this week is Ben Affleck's 'The Town'

It’s Wednesday, so today I give you my weekly list of movies that will open in theatres this week as well as my list of movies that will be released this week on DVD.

I hope this will serve as a useful guide as to what’s going this week if you happen to be near a movie theatre or if you’re looking for something to drop into your NetFlix queue.

Movies that are scheduled to hit theatres this Friday include:

- The Town (R): Directed by and starring Ben Affleck.
- Alpha and Omega (PG): Animated feature with voices provided by Christina Ricci, Danny Glover and the late Dennis Hopper.
- Jack Goes Boating (R): Directed by and starring Philip Seymour Hoffman.
- The Freebie (R): Dax Shepard and Katie Aselton.
- Devil (PG-13)
- Easy A (PG-13)
- Catfish (PG-13)

New DVD releases for the week of Sept. 14 include:

- Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time (PG-13): Jake Gyllenhaal, Ben Kingsley
- Letters to Juliet (PG)
- Paper Man (R): Jeff Daniels, Ryan Reynolds and Lisa Kudrow.
- Princess Kaiulani (PG)
- Casino Jack and the United States of Money (R)
- Just Wright (PG): Queen Latifah, Phylicia Rashad and Pam Grier.

If I could only watch one movie at the theatre this week, it would be “The Town,” and if I had to pick just one DVD to rent this week, it would be “Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time.”

In the end, let me know if you get a chance to watch any of the new movies in theatres this week or if you’ve already seen any of the movies that have just been released on DVD. What did you think about them? Which would you recommend? Let us know in the comments section below.
